There's actually been talk of a Saturday league that will float between Cliff Drive and Blue Valley. More info on that will be forthcoming. For now there is Saturday league at Olathe at 11:00am and 12:30 at Rosedale Downunder. Once daylight savings time kicks in these two leagues will say goodbye until next winter and a new Saturday league may take their place.

I don't know about having it at Cliff Drive kind of a long course, I guess it would be a good place to learn about the wind......Blue Valley with the "Juniors" course or Swope sounds a bit more conducive to learning disc golf. That's just me though, don't let my thoughts scare anybody away from Cliff Drive. It's turning into a really great course.

what about coordinating a new player's round before the weekend leagues. that way if people want to hang around and see what the locals throw, maybe borrow some technique, they can.new players, npl can happen. use this forum to pick a day, course, and time.

You can just carry your discs. If you feel like you need a bag you can make one out of a back pack, some pvc and some cardboard. Will work better than most of the crappy little over priced squares you can buy. It will also be more comfortable.

Wow this post has risen from the dead thanks for the tip on the bag, and that was back in March when I only had 3 disc's. Now 5 months later I've already out grown my beginner bag (square that you mentioned), and ordered a bigger one to accomadate a few more discs, and especially more crap that I'd like to carry on the course.

Hopefully some other beginner will get some use out of the Backpack/Cardboard/PVC bag though

cool guy, I don't believe that there are any new players leagues on the weekends. But knowing some of the people in the area I am sure if you set a time, date and place you could get a couple of people together for a round. I know that there is a league with a bunch of great people that play on sunday afternoon at Rosedale. If you ever have a chance new players league on Mondays is a lot of fun for all.
